Living, Loving and Creating in the Pacific Northwest

About the Author

I’m Kristin Tolle, a ninth generation native Idahoan living on Orcas Island at West Beach in the state of Washington. I’m an avid kayaker, knitter and photographer, not necessarily in that order. My aim is to find a little slice or heaven in the chaos of my mind.

I’ve been a knitter for a very, very long time–since I was very young. It goes back in my family for generations–mostly on the Swiss side of the family (Hunsaker). I love sharing free knitting patterns, those I create and those others share, so come back often to find great things to make.

You can find me: on Instagram at: @Kristin_Tolle, on Twitter @orcasisleknits, and on Facebook as Kris TravelinGal CrispenTolle–a merge of partner’s and my last name and a nod to the blog I used to write on which we met and fell in love.

June 13th is World Wide Knit in Public Day.
Is anyone gathering to knit at the market or library or on the interisland ferry?.
I will be on Orcas and would like to join a group.
